Mid-Century Modern PHILCO RADIO. TESTED AND FOUND TO BE WORKING GREAT. HERE IS A REAL RADIO POWERHOUSE. GREAT SOUND / LOTS OF VOLUME / AND AN ABILITY TO PULL IN STATIONS FROM FAR AWAY. TONIGHT AS I WAS LISTENING HERE IN PITTSBURGH, I HEARD WCBS IN NEW YORK LIKE IT WAS DOWN THE STREET. I ALSO GOT STATIONS FROM PHILLY & BOSTON. THE DIAL WAS LOADED WITH SIGNALS. THIS IS ALSO A FULL RANGE FM RADIO WHICH IS UNUSUAL FOR 1948. THE SIGNAL WAS NOT AS STRONG…. BUT I WAS ONLY USING THE COPPER ANTENNA INSIDE THE RADIO. THE FM WILL PROBABLY REQUIRE SOME ADDITIONAL AERIAL WIRE. APPROX SIZE: 19 x 11 x 12 HIGH. CONDITION: TESTED / WORKING. FM WILL NEED AN ADDITIONAL AERIAL. ELECTRONICALLY THIS RADIO IS IN TOP CONDITION. THE WOOD FINISH IS PRETTY GOOD. THERE IS A WEAR SPOT ON THE TOP LEFT SIDE. THERE IS SOME CRAZING OF THE FINISH ON THE RIGHT AND LEFT ROUNDED SHOULDERS.

PHILCO FLATTOP TABLE MODEL RADIO FOR SALE. PHILCO model 38-2670 RADIO. THIS RADIO IS JUST OUT OF THE SHOP WHERE IT HAS BEEN REBUILT WITH 90% NEW CAPACITORS. HOWEVER, IF YOU LOOK AT THE UNDERSIDE OF THE CHASSIS… IT WILL LOOK LIKE THE ORIGINAL CAPS. THAT’S BECAUSE OUR GENIUS TECH REPACKED THE OLD CAPS TO KEEP THE ORIGINAL LOOK. OUR GUY ALSO CLEANED ALL THE KNOB SHAFTS FOR SMOOTH DIALING ACTION. TESTED AND FOUND TO BE WORKING WELL. RADIO HAS A GOOD SOLID SHELL WITH MODERATE WEAR. KNOBS AND FACEPLATE ARE IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. RADIO PUTS OUT A GOOD, CLEAR SOUND. IN FACT THE SOUND IS VERY GOOD IN THE BASS RANGE. IT PRODUCES A NICE WARM TUBE SOUND. THERE ARE FIVE BANDS LISTED ON THE DIAL GRAPHIC BUT SOME OF THE BANDS ARE NO LONGER USED BY BROADCASTERS. — just don’t forget to use lots of antenna wire. The more the wire, the better the signal. CONDITION: TESTED AND FOUND TO BE WORKING WELL. 90% REBUILD ON THE CAPACITORS OUR GUY ONLY LEFT TWO THAT TESTED “EXCELLENT” AND ARE DARN NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO GET AT. MODERATE WEAR ON THE SURFACE. ONE SMALL FLAW IS THE GRILL CLOTH HAS A STAIN ON THE LOWER RIGHT CORNER WHICH CAN BE SEEN IN SOME OF THE GALLERY PHOTOS. ALL PICTURES IN THE GALLERY SHOTS TAKEN DIRECTLY OF THE OBJECT FOR SALE. HERE IS A REAL RADIO POWERHOUSE. GREAT SOUND / LOTS OF VOLUME / AND AN ABILITY TO PULL IN STATIONS FROM FAR AWAY. TONIGHT AS I WAS LISTENING HERE IN PITTSBURGH, I HEARD NEW YORK, ST. LOUIS, PHILLY AND MANY OTHER FAR AWAY STATIONS. THE DIAL WAS LOADED WITH SIGNALS. APPROX SIZE: 21 & 1/2 x 16 x 15. THE WOOD FINISH IS GOOD BUT THERE ARE A FEW FLAWS. THE LAST TWO GALLERY PHOTOS SHOW A LITTLE VENEER CHIP THAT FELL OFF AND WAS REGLUED. ALSO THERE IS A LITTLE ROUGHNESS ALONG THE UPPER RIGHT TOP EDGE — AS CAN BE SEEN IN THE GALLERY PHOTOS. THE RIGHT SIDE SHOWS SOME LITE FINISH FLAWS. AND THE TOP OF THE RADIO ALSO SHOWS SOME FINISH WEAR.
